Entering Junior High (2)
Jiang Xiaoman pretended to be serious, âOf course. I learned the ability from the shaman in our village. When I was a kid, I used to talk to myself. My grandma said I was possessed, so she asked her to come and do an exorcism. She gave me a talisman, burnt it to ashes for me to drink, and put a hot iron pot on top of my head while reciting a spell!â
âAhhh! Itâs terrible!â
âYes.â
Jiang Xiaoman also felt terrible.
She was clearly not possessed. If any other children were in her place, they would be so scared that they would actually become possessed.
Sigh, shaman, so unreliable.
But it was good for coaxing people.
Jiang Xiaoman took out the marking pen from her stationery box, and first tried to apply it on her own arm. Then, she said to Zhang Xinhua, âCome on, I will draw a picture on your face, so you donât have to be afraid.â
Zhang Xinhua was always obedient. He did whatever Jiang Xiaoman said. He obediently stretched his head over and let her draw on it.
Of course, Jiang Xiaoman couldnât draw a talisman.
She just randomly drew two circles on Zhang Xinhua, making him look like he was wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses.
After thinking about it, she felt that there were not enough of it to deceive the child, so she blacked out the bottom of his eye and painted eyes.
Jiang Xiaoman thought that he was so cute.
Zhang Xinhua was dumbfounded and asked, âIs this alright?â
âItâs fine now.â
âNothing will come looking for me?â
âNo, Iâve helped you ward them off.â
âThank you, Xiaoman.â
âYouâre welcome, we are good friends.â
Zhang Xinhua left happily.
Jiang Xiaoman put the marker back in the stationery box and realized that Yu Qingshi had been looking at her. She turned her head to look at him, and asked, âYou have also listened to the School Ten Mysteries, arenât you afraid?â
Yu Qingshi shook his head, âNo.â
He knew why Jiang Xiaoman was absent from school for two days.
Even if she could lie to others, she still wanted to lie to him?
He was not fooled.
Jiang Xiaoman sighed with regret. Originally, she wanted to draw on Yu Qingshi. It was fun, but since he was not afraid, then forget it.
As soon as she wanted to close the stationery box, Yu Qingshi stretched out an arm and said nothing.
Jiang Xiaoman looked at him.
Yu Qingshi blushed and whispered, âDraw it.â
He wouldnât agree to having his face drawn on.
Jiang Xiaoman was very happy. She drew a watch on his wrist. After thinking about it, she felt that it was not enough. Then she drew a flower and a sun on his arm.
She felt that her drawing was too beautiful, so she signed her name: Jiang Xiaoman.
Yu Qingshiâs arm felt ticklish, but he didnât laugh, and let her finish drawing.
Yu Qingshi breathed a sigh of relief when Jiang Xiaoman finished fiddling around.
Itchy.
There was a black scribble on his arm. To tell the truth, the drawing was really ugly, but Jiang Xiaoman felt very good about herself, so Yu Qingshi didnât say anything.
After returning home from school, the two children did their homework together.
Soon, an English conversation teacher would be coming to teach. Yu Qingshi had piano lessons at 8 oâclock in the evening. Jiang Xiaoman was also busy. The lessons were endless.
But other than the hobby class, she usually attended her classes together with Yu Qingshi.
The two children were equally busy.
Halfway through writing her homework, Jiang Xiaoman suddenly stopped and asked, âIs it true that after entering junior high school, there are not as many rules forbidding children from knowing something?â
âI guess so.â
âCan you just do what you want?â
âMaybe.â
âThen I really want to go to junior high school.â Jiang Xiaoman put her cheeks on her hands with a yearning look.
Not only did she have to go to junior high school, she also had to go to high school CC and college!
She wanted to surpass that big bad guy, and be a better villain! Only this way could she defeat him!
Jiang Xiaoman was instantly filled with fighting spirit. She thought about it for a while, then picked up her pen and continued doing her homework.
Yu Qingshi looked at her. After hesitating for a long time, he finally gathered up his courage and pretended to be calm while asking, âWhen we go to junior high school, can we still sit at the same table?â
Jiang Xiaoman didnât look up and said, âThen you have to keep working hard.â
â??â
âIf you canât get second place, you wonât be able to go to the same school as me, and you wonât be at the same table as me.â
âIs it okay if I pass the exam?â
Jiang Xiaoman took the time to pat his head, ah, she made a mistake and accidentally patted his face instead, âOf course I want to sit at the same table.â
Yu Qingshi would cry without her.
And when he cried, he would hide. He would be angry and ignore everyone.
It was really hard to coax him.
Yu Qingshiâs face suddenly became red, and at the same time he became full of fighting spirit. He began to work hard on his homework.
He could definitely do it!
Other than him, no one could sit at the same table as Jiang Xiaoman! Not even that Zhang Xinhua!
But, he couldnât say this.
If he said this, Jiang Xiaoman would definitely laugh at him, wuu wuu wuu.
And so, Yu Qingshi became more diligent than ever.
He worked hard, and Jiang Xiaoman felt the pressure and also worked even harder.
The two of them worked hard, and Zhang Xinhua couldnât find a playmate, so he also worked harder.
Even Zhang Xinhua was already hardworking. What reason did the other children have to not work hard? Letâs study hard together!
Study hard and improve every day!
Ye Jiajia couldnât play with Yu Qingshi, nor Jiang Xiaoman. She couldnât even play with Zhang Xinhua, so she could only study hard as well!
At the start of school entrance, everyone was admitted to the same junior high school and became schoolmates again!
